Amari Colombo Sri Lanka

Amari Colombo Sri Lanka

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent hotel! I'm in Sri Lanka every year and try to check out a new hotel in Colombo each time and this might be my favorite so far. Very clean and all the employees are polite, helpful, and professional. The rooftop restaurant and bar are good but warning very loud in the evenings. The gym is small and a bit dark but sufficient to get a good workout in. The lounge at the check in level is wonderful with great views of the ocean and we were lucky to be sitting there for some beautiful live piano playing. I would stay here again!"
